It's official: this is easily the dumbest show of summer 1014 that I'm going to watch every episode of. Probably next summer too. Just for reference, summer 2013 it was Whodunnit?

That can be read, and I intended it that way, as I find The Last Ship entertaining also. That's why I keep watching it. If it were a show I've been watching for years and it goes downhill (IMHO) then I find it almost impossible to stop watching, so I just bitch about it. But with a new shows like The Last Ship, I'm not stuck, so if I don't like it, I can stop watching if it's not entertaining.

'dumbest' might not have been the best choice of a word. It's not really dumb. Whodunnit? (any idea if there is going to be a season two? ) was dumb. TLS just has such great logic and plot holes. I'm not referring to anything that hasn't already been pointed out on these forums.

Aw, man. I thought they'd somehow save the girl who was sent to the infected camp.

El Toro was an idiot. How was he paying his henchmen?

I'm surprised they didn't save her too.

Pay them? He doesn't need to "pay" them. Making sure that they are not infected and that they are in a position of power relative to the people, and that they have it "easy" would be sufficient (at least for a while.)

I thought it was pretty ridiculous they went back to the camp. Why not just go back to the ship get back up and THEN go back. OK so yeah maybe too late to save the little girl but they are trying to save the world - I didn't buy it.

Like Laria said, the main objective was to save the girl. Remember how the XO said he had a daughter and asked the Captain about his daughter.

Exellent use of Dire Straits' "Ride Across the River" in this episode. I hadn't heard that song in ages.

How does a program arrange for the use of a US naval ship? I know they can recreate the inside of the ship on a sound stage but what about all the outside shots showing the ship?

Well, usually you have to go through the DOD to set up rentals. They do it all the time, if the message of the movie doesn't portray the armed forces in a bad light. But, Michael Bay has used so much military hardware in the past, he probably gets a discount.
